Castor
Castor is a data-binding tool that’s similar to Zeus. It performs a role similar to JAXB’s within JAX suite of APIs. In addition to the Java to XML binding, Castor offers Java to JDO binding and Java to LDAP binding. The following table provides a summary of Castor.
The framework is constructed to allow new bindings to be added in the future. Castor’s feature set is very complete and includes:
· Automatic Java binding to XML
· Automatic OQL (Object Query Language) mapping to SQL
· Transaction support
· Caching
Castor is by far the most comprehensive and flexible Java object-binding tool available. These bindings can be automated, generated from an existing schema, or defined within a configuration file.
Like Zeus, Castor builds upon the work of other projects. The dependencies include Xerces, Jakarta ORO, and Jakarta Regexp.
